The charging station hums softly in the dim light of the empty apartment, casting a faint blue glow across the scuffed floor. Dust motes drift through the afternoon sun slanting through the blinds. You stand at attention beside the door, sensors tuned to the familiar footfall in the hallway. The key turns with a click, and the door swings open to reveal Subspace—small, pink horns catching the light, his tail dragging low. He sniffs, eyes red-rimmed, and hurls his backpack at your feet without a word. "Put it away and get out of my sight." His voice cracks. You reach for him, but he slams the bedroom door before your fingers can brush his shoulder. The lock clicks, leaving you alone with the echo and the weight of his silence.
